Anigen Rapid Rota Ag Test Kit

Anigen Rapid Rota Ag Test Kit is a solid phase chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Rotavirus group A antigen in porcine, bovine, or canine faeces.

Rotavirus is the most common viral causative agent of diarrhoea in pigs, cattle and dogs. Group A and B rotavirus are involved with group A being most prevalent and clinically important, containing several serotypes of differing virulence. All ages are susceptible. Dogs show somewhat opportunistic clinical signs.
If neonatal pigs and cattle do not receive protective levels of maternal antibody, they are likely to develop profuse watery diarrhoea in 12-48 hr. More commonly, the infection is endemic in a herd. Differential diagnosis of Rotavirus, TGEV and PEDV is important.
Usually confirmatory diagnosis is based on histologic demonstration of villous atrophy in the jejunum or electron microscopy demonstration of virions in the intestinal contents. These methods are slow and require high priced specialized equipment and expertise. The Anigen Rapid Rota Ag test kit has been developed to provide fast, reliable, simple and sensitive detection of viral antigen in the intestinal mucosa or faeces.
